I know how you girls love Yo-Yo's and I know many of you are expert crafters. But I just couldn't help but brag on my Mamaw Cleo's sweet Yo-Yo T-towels. She is 80 and still going strong. I love her and treasure her talent. As time passes, the imperfections are a lil' more evident but I think that is what makes them all the more special. Thought you all might want to make yourself a pattern from her own lil' creation. Have a beautiful day! Cathy Cobblestone

I really like the yo-yo tea towels. Thanks for the idea. Things made by mothers and grandmothers are always special.

Hi Nancy Jo, it tickles me that you want to do some shopping with me. To be quite honest, I just haven't clicked the button yet to set it all up. I'm a little nervous - never done anything like this before. I've been doing some research on taking payments and all but it is still a lil' intimidating for me. Do you or anybody have any good advice for me? It would be greatly appreciated!!

All that aside, it makes my day to know that somebody might want to shop Cobblestone On-Line - so THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I promise I'll get it together soon and you'll be the first to know. Have a great night!! - Cathy

Kathy, what a wonderful site you have. The towels are wonderful and what a great idea. Wish you lived closer you definately have a handle on being a Farmgirl. Looks like you were one before there was such a thing. My hat off to you. I will check your site out again, and I loved the music.
Some people look for happiness, others create it!~
